Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To assess the association of polymorphisms in the aromatase gene (CYP19) and on the Y-chromosome, with adult height and insulin resistance in a UK Caucasian population, after a recent report indicated these variants explain 4 cm of adult male height variation. PATIENTS AND DESIGN: We performed an association study using 917 healthy UK Caucasian subjects from the Exeter Family Study, an ongoing...
